About The Event
Can you tell the tracks of an otter from a fisher? Would you recognize a bobcat hunting bed? Join expert tracker, Dan Gardoqui as we seek out, interpret and follow the tracks and trails of the diverse wildlife species in the Mahoosuc mountain valleys and foothills. We will focus on track identification, trail interpretation, awareness techniques and the reading of subtle clues that help us better connect with our wild neighbors.
